Things to Do in United Arab Emirates
The United Arab Emirates isn't just a place for exceptional hotels and unrivalled dining opportunities; it's an urban mecca of rich and diverse experiences that lend themselves to creating memories you'll simply never forget. Our inventory of attractions and things to do in the Middle East equips us to well exceed your expectations. Dune buggies and desert safaris followed by BBQ's and belly dancers in Bedouin tents, sunset cruises and helicopter rides over the palm islands skim only the surface of activities in the UAE, which cater for all the family.
It's a destination of extremes and while it's a particularly small country, there's no shortage of wild and wonderful things to do. Plunge into the Dubai Mall Aquarium, glide down the slopes at an indoor ski resort, dine at the world's only seven-star hotel or pay a visit to Yas Marina Circuit, the Middle East's home to Formula 1, and enjoy a high-octane drive experience.
